The amazing world of LEGO® Technic constructions.
Based on the vision from Ole Kirk Christiansen (1891-1958), a carpenter from Billund/Denmark, whose personal motto was "Only the best is good enough" - Leg Godt (Play Well).

TechnicBRICKs blog (TBs hereafter) is devoted to the LEGO Technic theme and intends to spot mainly on news and developments, rather than new sets reviews or users creations (aka MOCs). However you will also find them here occasionally...

I doubt there will be such a thing, but I do remember a combined model for the excavator and the telehandler which appeared in the LEGO Club magazine (?). Does anyone know if it's still available for download somewhere?

Why you speak of innovation? Where is innovation? Pneumatics, Forklift, Excavator, Bulldozer...are innovative? Hmmmmmm... The only innovative set LEGO have released for Technic fans in last years are the Power Functions Bulldozer and the WONDERFUL Monster Dino (4958, Creator!!) I'm still waiting for very innovative technic sets to come...something really diferent from the well knows cars, dozers, tractors etc...etc...

I mean't we are getting a few things different from the recent years:- the pneumatics return. Not an innovation in its true sense, but a return somehow unexpected.- This pack in itself is also not an innovation in the Technic theme, but also something very rare to happen. It is a minor thing, but unusual and deserves its mention.- The new parts we are getting are innovative despite we get something new every year.

So I was not meaning breakthrough innovations in terms of sets or parts, but signs of things changing even if minor to the eyes of some.
